What Are Symptoms Of Depression And Social Anxiety?

Hi!! My name is Maddie, I ve been having this problem where I get very quiet around certain people, almost to the point where it becomes uncomfortable to sit there and attempt to make conversation. I start getting really fidgety and want to say something, but for some reason I can t think of one single thing to say. My hands get clammy and I just can t be myself. It s weird because around my family and people younger/older than me, I m really outgoing. But, when I m around people my age, I m shy and awkward. People talk over me and I feel like my opinions don t matter. Nobody can hear me when I talk and I get annoyed because I m asked to repeat what I said four times. Nobody likes to repeat things. So, I guess my question is why am I like this? Is this something that can be fixed? I cannot keep doing this, it hurts too much and I wish others could see me the way I think of myself. I guess I need to be more confident? How do I work on this? Is there medicine I can take? I ve been looking into things about depression and social anxiety, is that what this is? I need major help, this has started effecting how I act in school and at dance, I don t think I can handle it much longer.

Hi,

Probably you have constipation making it double colored, the harder old still was dark and relatively smooth one on the day next must be light in color. More the stool lies in large intestine drier, harder and darker it gets due to excess water absorption.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
